Philly Cheese Knock Off

Posts: 2,300
Before I start any debates about the authenticity of the Origin or Ingredients of a true Philly Cheese Steak, this may be more of a "knock off of the local Mall's Cheese Steak" but that was a long title.
So, Missouri Legacy Beef's (free range) Pre-Cooked Peppered Eye Of Round Roast Beef was the centerpiece of this Philly Cheese Steak Knock Off. I've had this in the freezer for a few weeks and had thawed it for slicing for sandwiches. Tonight I decided to try my new Emile Henry Baking Stone as a griddle and tried my hand at making these sandwiches that turned out MAGNIFICANTLY!
Ingredients
1 Pre-cooked, peppered Eye of Round Roast Beef (Shaved)
1 Organic Sweet Onion, chopped and diced.
1 Medium Green Pepper, chopped and diced.
Condiments
EVOO Mayonnaise
Tomatoes
Jalapenos
Directions
Preheat Big Green Egg (hot) and grill the onions and peppers until crispy tender and remove.
Place Emily Henry Baking Stone on the Egg and place shredded beef, onions and peppers; adding water to create steam.
Continuously stir and slice the beef and then mix (3-4 minutes) until the beef is heated through.
Add Provolone cheese and drizzle on more water and cover with a lid for 15 seconds.
Serve into Hoagie buns, dress with your favorite condiments and serve.
Note: The baking stone is a little large for the Large Green Egg but the height turned out to be perfect for this cook making the set up work like a restaurant griddle. Since we were using pre cooked beef and no oils there was no risk of flare ups.

Seriously I hate to brag but my wife said this was the best thing you've made on the egg...now there are two ways to take that, I choose to think it was the best in a long line of great meals, Ha.Visit my blog, dedicated to my Big Green Egg Recipies at http://www.bigtsbge.blogspot.com You can also follow my posts on FaceBook under the name Keep On Eggin' or the link http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Keep-On-Eggin/198049930216241

Looks awesome.
Personally, when someone says "philly cheese steak", I think of a hoagie type bun, filled with meat & cheese. Cheezwhiz, onions, peppers, mushrooms, etc. aren't the focus... sure they're good, but just give me meat & cheese on a bun and I'm happy. You nailed it!
Nice cook. -
Yes you have to be VERY careful using that name, it has a lot of emotion attached to it for the locals.Visit my blog, dedicated to my Big Green Egg Recipies at http://www.bigtsbge.blogspot.com You can also follow my posts on FaceBook under the name Keep On Eggin' or the link http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Keep-On-Eggin/198049930216241

What a nice cook and your PCS looks better than any I have had on the east coast.
I was online looking at the EH pizza stone and saw this. I was wondering if if would work on the egg, well you have convinced me it will. I am ordering both. Thanks

The baking stone sets across the lip of the large re my picks. Worked just fine as a griddle in that position.

HMMMMMMMMMM.... cheese steak!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Welcome to the Swamp.....GO GATORS!!!! -
Looks great!!!
I love cheesesteaks with Cheese Whiz. That's how they have them in Philly, but it's near impossible to find them like that outside of there. -
Can I get one to go without those green things, plz? Looks pretty tasty whether it qualifies as a philly or not. Who cares, right? It tasted good and that's all that matters.
